Good Times Bad Times
Led Zepplin

In the days of my youth
I was told what it means to be a man,
Now I've reached the age
I've tried to do all those things the best I can.
No matter how I try,
I find my way into the same old jam.
Good Times, Bad Times,
You know I had my share;
When my woman left home
For a brown eyed man,
Well, I still don't seem to care.
Sixteen: I fell in love
With a girl as sweet as could be,
Only took a couple of days
Till she was rid of me.
She swore that she would be all mine
And love me till the end,
But when I whispered in her ear
I lost another friend, oooh.

Good Times, Bad Times,
You know I had my share;
When my woman left home
For a brown eyed man,
Well, I still don't seem to care.
I know what it means to be alone,
I sure do wish I was at home.
I don't care what the neighbors say,
I'm gonna love you each and every day.
You can feel the beat within my heart.
Realize, sweet babe, we ain't ever gonna part.

Get It While You Can
Janis Joplin

In this world, if you read the papers, Lord,
You know everybody’s fighting on with each other.
You got no one you can count on, baby,
Not even your own brother.
So if someone comes along,
He’s gonna give you some love and affection
I’d say get it while you can, yeah!
Honey, get it while you can,
Hey, hey, get it while you can,
Don’t you turn your back on love, no, no!

Don’t you know when you’re loving anybody, baby,
You’re taking a gamble on a little sorrow,
But then who cares, baby,
‘Cause we may not be here tomorrow, no.
And if anybody should come along,
He gonna give you any love and affection,
I’d say get it while you can, yeah!
Hey, hey, get it while you can,
Hey, hey, get it while you can.
Don’t you turn your back on love,
No no no, no no no no no.

Oh, get it while you can,
Honey get it when you’re gonna wanna need it dear, yeah yeah,
Hey hey, get it while you can,
Don’t you turn your back on love,
No no no, no no no no, get it while you can,
I said hold on to somebody when you get a little lonely, dear,
Hey hey, hold on to that man’s heart,
Yeah, get it, want it, hold it, need it,
Get it, want it, need it, hold it,
Get it while you can, yeah,
Honey get it while you can, baby, yeah,
Hey hey, get it while you can!

A song title that is descriptive of my time without Apolyton

Bad Religion - Suffer

did you ever see the concrete stares of everyday?
the lunatic, the hypocrite are all lost in the fray
can't you see their lives are just like ours?
an unturned stone, an undiscovered door
leading too, the gift of hope renewed,
eternity for you,
the masses of humanity
have always had to suffer
the businessmen whose master plan
(controls the world) each day,
is blind to indications of his species
slow decay
people blow their minds
(they choose to resign),
this deformed society is part
of the design it'll never go away,
(it's in the cards that way),
the masses of humanity
will always have to suffer!

Jimmy Eat World - Goodbye Sky Harbor

Is tomorrow just a day like all the rest?
How could you know just what you did?
Like all the rest...
How could you know just what you did?
So full of faith, yet full of doubt

I ask again... I shall ask you this once again
He said... "I am but one small instrument"
Do you remember that?

Time and time again you said, "don't be afraid"...
If you believe then you can do it
Don't be afraid...
If you believe then you can do it
The only voice I want to hear is yours...

I ask again... I shall ask you this once again
He said... "I am but one small instrument"
Do you remember that?

So here I am above palm trees, so straight and tall...
You are smaller, getting smaller...
But I still see you...

Jimmy Eat World - Just Watch The Fireworks

Here... you can be anything...
And I think that scares you
I think that scares you
Here... I've been here before...
But only by myself... myself...

I promised I'd see it again
I promised i'd see this with you now

What giving up gives you
And where giving up takes you...
I've had, and I've been
Here in centre frame...
Here, there's only air
And just enough space to fit...

I promised I'd see it again
I promised i'd see this with you now

I said, said, said it out loud over and over
I said, said, said it out loud but what do I know?
I said, said, said it out loud over and over
I said, said, said it out loud over and over
I said, said, said it out loud but it did not help...

I'll stop now...
Just enough so I can hear you
I'll stay up as late as it takes

I promised I'd see it again
I promised i'd see this with you now

I said, said, said it out loud over and over
I said, said, said it out loud but what do I know?

I'll stop now...
Just enough so I can hear you
I'll stay up as late as it takes

I'll stay up as late as it takes
I'll stay up as long as it takes
As long as it takes...
As long as it takes...
As long as it takes...
I'll stay up as late as it takes
As long, it takes...

Fleetwood Mac - Don't Stop

If you wake up and don't want to smile,
If it takes just a little while,
Open your eyes and look at the day,
You'll see things in a different way.

So don't stop thinking about tomorrow,
Don't stop, it'll soon be here,
It'll be much better than before,
'Cos yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone.

Why not think about times to come,
And not about the things that you've done,
If your life was bad to you,
Just think what tomorrow will do.

So don't stop thinking about tomorrow,
Don't stop, it'll soon be here,
It'll be much better than before,
'Cos yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone.

All I want is to see you smile,
If it takes just a little while,
I know you don't believe that it's true,
I never meant any harm to you.

So don't stop thinking about tomorrow,
Don't stop, it'll soon be here,
It'll be much better than before,
'Cos yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone.

Don't you look back,
Don't you look back.

singing in my sleep - SeMiSoNiC

Got your tape and it changed my mind
Heard your voice in between the lines
Come around from another time
Where nobody ever goes

All alone on the overpass
Wired and phoned to a heart of glass
Now I'm falling in love too fast
With you or the songs you chose

And all the stars
Play for me
Say the promise you long to keep

I can hear you sing it to me in my sleep
I can hear you sing it to me in my sleep

I've been living in your cassette
It's the modern equivalent
Singin up to a capulet
On a balcony in your mind

In the city the lion sleeps
Pray to Sony my soul to keep
Were you ever so bright and sweet
Did you ever look so nice

And all the sounds
Dream for me
Dive me down in a soul so deep

I can hear you sing it to me in my sleep
I can hear you sing it to me in my sleep



Posted this before in another thread but it's sooooooo good it deserves twice
Rebecca St James - Don't Worry

On the corner of Fifth and Broadway
I was walking to the grocery store on Third
I saw a man up on a box and he seemed a little unorthodox
Well, he was preaching up a storm
And as I walked on by he said...

Don’t worry about your life
‘Cause if you hold it too close you’ll lose it
Don’t worry about your life
So won’t you let go before it’s gone

A little further on I saw a beggar on the street
He asked for change, then gives me his life story
Said he was a millionaire but he made some bad decisions there
And now a dollar-fifty could feed him for a week
And he said

Don’t worry about your life
‘Cause if you hold it too close you’ll lose it
Don’t worry about your life
So won’t you let go before it’s gone

Then I see the birds
I watch them fly
They’ve got everything they need
They show me why
I can be free
Knowing You will care for me

Now finally at the grocery store
My mind is filled with many thoughts
As I bump into a girl I knew from high school
She said "What’s different about you girl?"
And I smiled and said
This is what I know to be true... and I’ll pass it right along to you

Don’t worry about your life
‘Cause if you hold it too close you’ll lose it
Don’t worry about your life
So won’t you let go before it’s gone

Tonight, tonight Support Apolyton, buy Civilization 2

time is never time at all
you can never ever leave without leaving a piece of youth
and our lives are forever changed
we will never be the same
the more you change the less you feel
believe, believe in me, believe
that life can change, that you're not stuck in vain
we're not the same, we're different tonight
tonight, so bright, tonight
and you know you're never sure
but you're sure you could be right
if you held yourself up to the light
and the embers never fade in your city by the lake
the place where you were born
believe, believe in me, believe
in the resolute urgency of now
and if you believe there's not a chance tonight
tonight, so bright, tonight
we'll crucify the insincere tonight
we'll make things right, we'll feel it all tonight
we'll find a way to offer up the night, tonight
the indescribable moments of your life, tonight
the impossible is possible tonight
believe in me as i believe in you tonight

How do I... get through a night without you
If I had to live without you, what kind of life would that be.
Oh I, I need you in my arms need to hold,
you're my world, my heart, my soul,
if you ever leave,

How do I live without you, I want to know,
How do I breathe without you, if you ever go,
How do I ever, ever survive....
How do I, how do I...oh how do I live....

without you
There'd be no sun in my sky,
there would be no love in my life,
there would be no world left for me,
and I...baby I don't know what I would do,
I'd be lost if I lost you,
if you ever leave,
baby you would take away everything real in my life
and tell me now...

How do I live without you, I want to know,
How do I breathe without you, if you ever go,
How do I ever, ever survive....
How do I, how do I...oh how do I live....

baby you would take away everything

How do I live without you, I want to know,
How do I breathe without you, if you ever go,
How do I ever, ever survive....

Blinded By the Light
Manfred Mann's Earth Band


Madmen drummers bummers and Indians in the summer
With a teenage diplomat
In the dumps with the mumps as the adolescent pumps
His way into his hat
With a boulder on my shoulder feelin' kinda older
I tripped the merry-go-round
With this very unpleasing sneezing and wheezing
The calliope crashed to the ground
Some all-hot half-shot was headin' for the hot spot
Snappin' his fingers, clappin' his hands
And some fleshpot mascot was tied into a lover's knot
With a whatnot in her hand
And now young Scott with a slingshot finally found a tender spot
And throws his lover in the sand
And some bloodshot forget-me-not whispers daddy's within earshot
Save the buckshot turn up the band

And she was blinded by the light
Wrapped up like a deuce
Another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
She got down but she never got tight
But she'll make it alright

Some brimstone baritone anticyclone rolling stone
Preacher from the east
He says, "Dethrone the dictaphone, hit it in its funny bone
That's where they expect it least"
And some new-mown chaperone was standin' in the corner all alone
Watchin' the young girls dance
And some fresh-sown moonstone was messin' with his frozen zone
To remind him of the feeling of romance

Yeah he was blinded by the light
Wrapped up like a deuce
Another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
She got down but she never got tight
But she'll make it alright

Some silicone sister with her manager's mister
Told me I got what it takes
She said I'll turn you on sonny to something strong
If you play that song with the funky break
And go-cart Mozart was checkin' out the weather chart
To see if it was safe to go outside
And little Early-Pearly came in by her curly-wurly
And asked me if I needed a ride
Oh, some hazard from Harvard was skunked on beer
Playin' backyard bombardier
Yes and Scotland Yard was trying hard, they sent a dude with a calling card
He said, do what you like, but don't do it here
Well I jumped up, turned around, spit in the air, fell on the ground
Asked him which was the way back home
He said take a right at the light, keep going straight until night
And then boy you're on your own

And now in Zanzibar a shootin' star was ridin' in a side car
Hummin' a lunar tune
Yes, and the avatar said blow the bar but first remove the cookie jar
We're gonna teach those boys to laugh too soon
And some kidnapped handicap was complaining that he caught the clap
From some mousetrap he bought last night
Well I unsnapped his skull cap and between his ears I saw a gap
But he'd figured he'd be all right

He was just blinded by the light
Wrapped up like a deuce
Another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
Mama always told me not to look into the sights of the sun
Oh but mama that's where the fun is...

She got down, but she never got uptight
She's gonna make it through the night

Descendents - Silly Girl

Started on a summer Sunday, the pink dress on the setting sun
You were going to grandma's house, I was too scared to come

Silly girl, I'm beggin' you
Tell me all the things I want to hear
Silly girl, I'm in love with you

I had to run to catch you, you always move so fast
With your cute little smile and silly laugh, God gave me love at last

Silly girl, I'm beggin' you
Tell me all the things I want to hear
Silly girl, I'm in love with you

They said just stay away and now I wish I had
I'm so in love with you, my silly girl

They made me go away, sometimes life isn't fair
But I'll be back some day, I hope you'll still be there

Silly girl, I'm beggin' you
Tell me all the things I want to hear
Silly girl, I'm in love with you

When you're just a silly boy like me, you're always so scared
I was too scared to love you, even though I really cared

They said just stay away and now I wish I had
I'm so in love with you, my silly girl

Too Far From Texas
Stevie Nicks


There's a plane, it's headed for London
Twenty-four hours more and he'll be on it
And I can't show my love, and I can't stop it
Ooh, I can't stop it

There's a house there, somebody's waiting
Somebody else's arms will wrap around him
And in that moment what will he think then...
When I can't touch him

Chorus:
Maybe my love could fly over the ocean
Maybe my heart should try to leave him alone
All that I really know is that he's goin'
Too far from Texas
Too close to home

In a room just outside of Houston
That's where I spend my nights trying to get through to him
He says he's comin' back in every letter...
But he might never
No he might never

(Chorus)

Does he know how long
I've waited for this love to come
Does he know I'm holdin' on
And that won't change no matter where he's gone

(Chorus)

Couldn't I, couldn't I wait
Couldn't he, couldn't he stay one more day

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

OK, £10 to anyone who's actually heard of them, so here we go:

East to West - Audacity

There's a little boy who has to leave the landing light turned on
Praying in his innocence that God will make him strong
And there's a little girl trying to figure it out
If she's a rag doll or a daughter
Hoping that someday she will find love

From East to West
We are your children
From East to West to you we cry
From East to West
We're drawn together
Like a curtain closed against the winter night

There's a man on the street with his cap in his hand
Hoping pennies will rain from Heaven
Even though the weatherman, he said it will stay dry
And there's a woman who rides every morning at 8
On the Lichfield to New Street line
Though she's dying inside, if you ask how she is
She'll always say she's fine

From East to West
We are your children
From East to West to you we cry
From East to West
We're drawn together
Like a curtain closed against the winter night

There's a man speaking on a hillside
And the crowd hang on every word
There's a man in a fishing boat
Whom the wind and the waves have heard
There's a man on a Roman cross
Betrayed by a best friend's kiss
What kind of man, what kind of love is this?

From East to West
We are your children
From East to West to you we cry
From East to West
We're drawn together
Like a curtain closed against the winter night
From East to West you are our light
From East to West

For Your Eyes Only .......
James Bond Theme
-Sheena Easton
1981



For your eyes only, can see me through the night.
For your eyes only, I never need to hide.
You can see so much in me, so much in me that's new.
I never felt until I looked at you.

For your eyes only, only for you.
You'll see what no one else can see, and now I'm breaking free.
For your eyes only, only for you.
The love I know you need in me, the fantasy you've freed in me.
Only for you, only for you.

For your eyes only, the nights are never cold.
You really know me, that's all I need to know.
Maybe I'm an open book because I know you're mine,
But you won't need to read between the lines.

For your eyes only, only for you.
You see what no one else can see, and now I'm breaking free.
For your eyes only, only for you.
The passions that collide in me, the wild abandoned side of me.
Only for you, for your eyes only.

You Never Even Called Me By Name
David Allen Coe


Well, it was all
That I could do to keep from cryin'
Sometimes it seemed so useless to remain
But you don't have to call me Darlin', Darlin'
You never even call me by my name

You don't have to call me Waylon Jennings
And you don't have to call me Charlie Pride
And you don't have to call me Merle Haggard anymore
Even though you're on my fightin' side

Chorus:
And I'll hang around as long as you will let me
And I never minded standin' in the rain
But you don't have to call me Darlin', Darlin'
You never even called me by my name

Well I've heard my name
A few times in your phone book
And I've seen it on signs where I've played
But the only time I know
I'll hear "David Allan Coe"
Is when Jesus has his final Judgement Day

Repeat Chorus

Recitation:
Well, a friend of mine named Steve Goodman wrote that song
And he told me it was the perfect country and western song
I wrote him back a letter and I told him it was not the perfect country and western song
Because he hadn't said anything at all about Mama
Or trains
Or trucks
Or prison
Or gettin' drunk
Well, he sat down and wrote another verse to the song
And he sent it to me
And after reading it
I realized that my friend had written the perfect country and western song
And I felt obliged to include it on this album
The last verse goes like this here:

Well I was drunk the day my mom got out of prison
And I went to pick her up in the rain
But before I could get to the station in my pickup truck
She got runned over by a damned old train

And I'll hang around as long as you will let me
And I never minded standin' in the rain
No, you don't have to call me Darlin', Darlin
You never even call me
Well I wonder why you don't call me
Why don't you ever call me by my name

Enter the AD-FREE zone

At Seventeen by Janis Ian

I learned the truth at seventeen
That love was meant for beauty queens
And high school girls with clear skinned smiles
Who married young and then retired
The valentines I never knew
The Friday night charades of youth
Were spent on one more beautiful
At seventeen I learned the truth...

And those of us with ravaged faces
Lacking in the social graces
Desperately remained at home
Inventing lovers on the phone
Who called to say "come dance with me"
And murmured vague obscenities
It isn't all it seems at seventeen...

A brown eyed girl in hand me downs
Whose name I never could pronounce
Said: "Pity please the ones who serve
They only get what they deserve"
The rich relationed hometown queen
Marries into what she needs
With a guarantee of company
And haven for the elderly...

So remember those who win the game
Lose the love they sought to gain
In debitures of quality and dubious integrity
Their small-town eyes will gape at you
In dull surprise when payment due
Exceeds accounts received at seventeen...

To those of us who knew the pain
Of valentines that never came
And those whose names were never called
When choosing sides for basketball
It was long ago and far away
the world was younger than today
when dreams were all they gave for free
to ugly duckling girls like me...

We all play the game, and when we dare
We cheat ourselves at solitaire
Inventing lovers on the phone
Repenting other lives unknown
That call and say: "Come on, dance with me"
And murmur vague obscenities
At ugly girls like me, at seventeen...

iain: on j.e.w. i like bleed american and the middle

Papercut by Linkin Park
Why does it feel like night today?
Something in here's not right today
Why am I so uptight today?
Paranoia's all I got left
I don't know what stressed me first.
Or how the pressure was fed/but
I know just what it feels like
To have a voice in the back of my head
It's like a face that I hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face watches every time I lie
A face that laughs every time I fall
[And watches everything]
So I know that when it's time to sink or swim
That the face inside is hearing me/right underneath my skin

Chorus:
It's like I'm paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a/whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I/can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin

I know I've got a face in me
Points out all my mistakes to me
You've got a face on the inside too and
Your paranoia's probably worse
I don't know what set me off first but I know what I can't stand
Everybody acts like the fact of the matter is
I can't add up to what you can
But everybody has a face that they hold inside
A face that awakes when they close my eyes
A face watches everytime they lie
A face that laughs everytime they fall
[And watches everything]
So you know that when it's time to sink or swim
The face is right inside you too/ right inside your skin

The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me
The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me

Halo by Soil

I'm the man, I'm the king
I'm the one
thats pure inside
everyday, everyway i smell
of suicide
bitter sins how they grow within
so tell me it ain't right
I AM... ALL SINS
and you're my reason for life

I will stone you, stone you
wrap my arms around you
i will stone you, stone you
my little HALO

I'm the man, I'm the king
I'm the one
thats broken from giving
everyday everyway
i swear just one last try
killing me with the death to be
something thats so right
I AM ... ALL SINS
my hands are scarred with time

I will stone you, stone you
wrap my arms around you
i will stone you, stone you
my little HALO

feel through my eyes...

im the man with the rockin his
hand, got the rock in my hand
gonna stone you, stone you

make a change, gotta rearrange
idle minds crushing time
I AM ... ALL SINS
and you're the reason for life

I will stone you, stone you
wrap my arms around you
i will stone you, stone you
my little HALO

Boogie Wonderland by Earth Wind and Fire

Dance boogie wonderland
dance boogie wonderland
Midnight creeps so slowly into hearts,
of men who need more than they get
daylight deals a bad hand,
to a woman that has laid to many bets

The mirror stares you in the face and says
"baby, uh uh it don't work"
you say your prayers through you don't care
you dance and shake the hurt
dance boogie wonderland
dance boogie wonderland

Sound fly through the night
I chase my vinyl drams to boogie wonderland
I find romance when I start to dance in boogie wonderland
I find romance when I start to dance in boogie wonderland

All the love in the world can't be gone
all the need to be loved can't be wrong
All the records are playing
and my heart keeps saying
"boogie wonderland, wonderland"
dance boogie wonderland
dance boogie wonderland

All the love in the world can't be gone
all the need to be loved can't be wrong
All the records are playing
and my heart keeps saying
"boogie wonderland, wonderland"
dance boogie wonderland
dance boogie wonderland

You'll Always Be Loved By Me


(Ronnie Dunn/Terry McBride)

I know forever is a long long time
For a girl to put her heart on the line
Trust is a tight rope we all have to walk
Baby don't be afraid I won't let you fall
With a little faith mountains move
You and me we can't lose

You can count on the sun to rise
And stars to come out at night
As long as there's air to breathe
You'll always be loved by me

Love comes so many times goes
So much out there we'll never know
Call it fate call it destiny
But I think we were meant to be
This old world it spins so fast
So many times they just don't last

You can count on the sun to rise
And stars to come out at night
As long as there's air to breathe
You'll always be loved by me

You can count on the sun to rise
And stars to come out at night
As long as there's air to breathe
You'll always be loved by me

You'll always be loved by me

Livin' Thing


Sailin' away on the crest of a wave
It's like magic
Rollin' and ridin' and slippin' & slidin'
It's magic

CHORUS
And you, and your sweet desire,
You took me, higher and higher
It's a livin' thing,
It's a terrible thing to lose
It's a given thing
What a terrible thing to lose.

Making believe this is what you've conceived
From your worst day,
Moving in line when you look back in time
To your first day

CHORUS -- repeat

Takin' a dive 'cos you can't halt the slide
Floating downstream,
So let her go don't start spoiling the show
It's a bad dream

CHORUS -- repeat


----------------------------------------------------------------------

Mr. Blue Sky


Sun is shinin' in the sky,
There ain't a cloud in sight
It's stopped rainin'
Everybody's in a play
And don't you know
It's a beautiful new day.

Runnin' down the avenue,
See how the sun shines brightly
In the city on the streets
Where once was pity,
Mr. Blue Sky is living here today.

CHORUS
Mr. Blue Sky, please tell us why,
You had to hide away
For so long where did we go wrong.

Hey there Mr. Blue
We're so pleased to be with you
Look around see what you do,
Everybody smiles at you.

Hey you with the pretty face,
Welcome to the human race
A celebration Mr. Blue Sky's
Up there waitin' and today
Is the day we've waited for

CHORUS:REPEAT

Mr. Blue you did it right,
But soon comes Mr. Night,
Creepin' over, now his
Hand is on your shoulder,
Never mind I'll remember you this way.

CHORUS:REPEAT


-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rock 'N' Roll Is King


Listen everybody let me tell you 'bout the rock 'n' roll
Feel that rhythm and it's really gonna thrill your soul
She said come along with me, to a land of make believe
She said rock 'n' roll is king

She loves that rock 'n' roll and she plays it all night long
That's all she ever tells me when I call her on the telephone
She says feel that jumpin' beat, and git up on your feet
She says rock 'n' roll is king

Chorus: Oh let those guitars play
Play for me play for me
Oh let that song ring out
That's how it's meant to be

It rolls like a train that's comin' on down the track
She rolled over Beethoven and she gave Tchaikovsky back
She loves that drivin' beat, she goes dancin' on down the street
She said rock 'n' roll is king

Chorus

When she comes around and I'm listenin' to the radio
She says you can't do that 'cause all I wanna do is rock 'n' roll
Now here I'm gonna stay where that music starts to play
She says rock 'n' roll is king

Reel Big Fish - Sellout

Well I know
You can't work
In fast food
All your life
But don't "Sign That, Paper Tonight"
She said
But it's too late

And I don't remember what I read
Don't remember what they said
I guess it doesn't matter
Guess it doesn't matter any more

Cause you're gonna go to the record store
You're gonna give them all your money
The radio plays what they want you to hear
They tell me it's cool
I just don't believe it

Sell out...with me oh yeah
Sell out...with me tonight
The record company's
Gonna give me lots of money
And everythings gonna be...
alright

No more flipping burgers
Putting on my silly hat
You know I don't want that...
no more

And I didn't ask when we get paid
Quit my day job anyway
I guess it doesn't matter
Guess it doesn't matter anymore

Cause you're gonna go to the record store
You're gonna give them all you're money
The radio plays what they want you to hear
They tell me it's cool
I just don't believe it

Sell out...with me oh yeah
Sell out...with me tonight
The record company's
Gonna give me lots of money
And everythings gonna be...

And I don't think it'll be
so bad
And I know it won't be
so bad
Cause the man said
"That's the way it is"
And the man said
"It don't get better than this...
no no no"

So I signed on to the record company
They said they're gonna give me
Lots of money
If I play what they want you to hear
They tell me it's cool
And I sure believe it

Sell out...with me oh yeah
Sell out...with me tonight
The record company's
Gonna give me lots of money
And everything's gonna be...
alright

Yeeeaaaaaah
Yeah Yeah
Yeah Yeah
The Record Company Is Gonna
Make Everything
Alright

"Baby don't you sign that paper tonight" she said
But I Can't Work In Fast Food All My Life

Bad Religion - Automatic Man

he's the latest super hero with powers so profound
he can leap a dotted line in just a single bound
I know you must have seen him in books and magazines
he's the quintessential, mindless, modern epicene
his life is meaningful because he get things done
(bang bang) he's dead
chalk up another triumph for our hero
the automatic man

it's true you must have met him
he's your best friend and your foe
his opinions are determined by the status quo
a true creature of habit
he smokes three packs a day
when he has an original thought
he forgets it right away

he's a paradigm of carefree living
he's our mentor disturb him if you can
he's the answer if your peace of mind is lacking
he's our savior
he is the common man

so if you are troubled by the daily bump and grind
then take a careful look around
and brother you will find...
the automatic man

Someone played too much Dungeons and Dragons as a child!!

On a cold dark winter night
Hidden by the stormy light
A battle rages for the right
For what will become

In the valley of the damned
A warrior with sword in hand
Travels fast across the land
For freedom he rise

And the sign from the master on high
He screams a loud and across hear the cry
For the kingdom of fire and ice
And the power to be alive

Four strong ride on carry on through the war
Four strong carry on living for ever more

On the wings of death
By the hands of doom
By the darkest light
From the darkest moon

Crossing silent seas
Over mountains high
All will stand as one tonight

On the black wind forever
We ride on together
Destroying your evil with freedom my guide
When the master will call us
He stands high before us
Our hearts filled with splendour
Our swords will shine over the light

In the valley of the damned
Days breaks with golden strand
Over pastures green it glows
To where night returns

On the shadows faces appear
Warriors wearing full metal gear
Join together one and all
Before the glorious light

Rise up gather around come and hear what is said
Use your senses open your mind don't you ever forget

On the wings of life
By the hands of hope
By the brightest light
From the brightest sun
Crossing silent seas
Over mountains high
To the valley of the damned

Can't Stop My Heart
-brooks and dunn



Sittin' in my world alone
I catch myself reachin' for the phone
Gotta get outta here and find a place to get my head clear
I make a wrong turn down your road
And how I got here, I'm afraid I know
A part of me keeps going too far
I can't stop my heart

Yeah it feels what it wants to feel
And it does what it wants to do
I tell it no, then before I know it
It's a right back to lovin' you
I can't stop my heart before it's through
It's gonna break itself in two
I can't stop my heart

I do my best to leave the past
But I can't keep my heart from going back
What am I gonna do, it just remembers what it wants to
And once it lets your memory in
I let myself get swept away again and again
I know it's always tearing me apart
I can't stop, stop my heart

Yeah it feels what it wants to feel
And it does what it wants to do
I tell it no, then before I know it
It's a right back to lovin' you
I can't stop my heart before it's through
It's gonna break itself in two
I can't stop my heart

Only In America
brooks and dunn



Sun coming up over New York City
School bus driver in a traffic jam
Starin' at the faces in her rearview mirror
Looking at the promise of the Promised Land
One kid dreams of fame and fortune
One kid helps pay the rent
One could end up going to prison
One just might be president

Only in America
Dreaming in red, white and blue
Only in America
Where we dream as big as we want to
We all get a chance
Everybody gets to dance
Only in America

Sun going down on an La. freeway
Newlyweds in the back of a limousine
A welder's son and a banker's daughter
All they want is everything
She came out here to be an actress
He was the singer in a band
They just might go back to Oklahoma
And talk about the stars they could have been

Chorus

Only in America
Where we dream in red, white and blue
Only in America
Where we dream as big as we want to
We all get a chance
Everybody gets to dance
Only in America

Yeah only in America
Where we dream in red, white and blue
Yeah we dream as big as we want to

TITLE: Friday On My Mind



Monday morning feels so bad
Everybody seems to nag me
Comin' Tuesday I feel better
Even my old man looks good
Wednesday just don't go
Thursday goes too slow
I have Friday on my mind

{Refrain}
I'm gonna have fun in the city
Be with my girl she's so pretty
She looks fine tonight
She is out of sight to me
(Tonight) I'll spend my bread
(Tonight) I'll lose my head
(Tonight) I've got to get
Tonight

Monday I've got Friday on my mind

Do the five day grind once more
I know of nothing else that bores me
More than working for the rich man
Hey I'll change that scene one day
Today I might be mad
Tomorrow I'll be glad
I'll have Friday on my mind

{Refrain}

Unky Neil three shot Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

Cause I feel like it, three Neil Young songs, all relevant to their times.

The first, always p1sses off Southerners, I wonder why?

Southern Man
Neil Young

Southern man better keep your head
Don't forget what your good book said
Southern change gonna come at last
Now your crosses are burning fast
Southern man

I saw cotton and I saw black
Tall white mansions and little shacks
Southern man when will you pay them back?
I heard screamin' and bullwhips cracking
How long? How long?

Southern man better keep your head
Don't forget what your good book said
Southern change gonna come at last
Now your crosses are burning fast
Southern man

Lily Belle, your hair is golden brown
I've seen your black man comin' round
Swear by God I'm gonna cut him down!
I heard screamin' and bullwhips cracking
How long? How long?
